I’m just a regular, a simple, regular, a normal, regular girl…
I’m just a regular, a simple, regular, a normal, regular girl…
I’m just a regular girl!
No need to follow me home,
just ‘cause I pay my light bill with a microphone!
I’m not Janet Jackson! I’m not Paula Abdul!
Someone like me’s never gonna be that cool!
So don’t get upset, but I can’t help but laugh
whenever someone asks me for an autograph.
I just don’t know how to act like a celebrity!
It’s just way too crazy for a regular girl like me!
I'm just a regular girl,
Just like I was before,
but now they snap my picture at the grocery store!
I'm not Cyndi Lauper, and I'm not Joan Jett.
I’m nowhere near that famous! Well, at least, not yet!
So I can't help but blush and crinkle up my nose
when people rush up to me and ask me to pose.
They say they can’t believe we’re doing this, and I agree!
It’s just way too crazy for a regular girl like me!
I’m just a regular, a simple, regular, a normal, regular girl…
I'm just a regular girl!
Why are they so impressed?
They write whole articles about the way I’m dressed!
I’m not Bonnie Tyler. I’m not Chaka Khan.
So, why do people care about what I have on?
This dress was clean this morning. It’s a pretty blue.
They ask me who designed it, and I have no clue!
Maybe I’m a little underdressed for VIP?
It’s just way too crazy for a regular girl like me!
I'm just a regular girl,
and I don't get why they
would care at all about the things I have to say.
I'm not Stevie Nicks, Gloria Estefan;
why would they talk to me when they could have them on?
Every single time that I get interviewed,
I only answer their questions so I don’t seem rude.
Don’t know why you’d wanna hear my whole biography.
It’s just way too crazy for a regular girl like me!

I’m just a regular, a simple, regular, a normal, regular girl…
I'm just a regular girl,
and I am still surprised
by how much better I look in random strangers’ eyes.
I'm not Tina Turner. I'm not Taylor Dayne.
When people treat me like it, it still feels insane!
People I've been friends with for my whole life long
aren't as impressed as folks get when they hear my songs.
Sometimes I wish that I could be the girl they think they see,
but it’s just way too crazy for a regular girl like me!
I'm just a regular girl,
and not in all my plans
could I have ever imagined I’d have all these fans!
I’m not Annie Lennox. I’m not Bonnie Raitt.
Have a hard time believing that I’m all that great.
Sure, I always hoped one day I’d be a star,
but it still feels so weird when suddenly, you are!
They say that I’ll be almost used to it by album three;
right now it’s way too crazy for a regular girl like me!
I’m just a regular, a simple, regular, a normal, regular girl…
I’m just a regular, a simple, regular, a normal, regular girl…
I'm just a regular girl,
and I don't understand
why people think I'm special ‘cause I'm in a band.
I'm not Whitney Houston or Pat Benatar.
I’m not sure how my voice has carried me this far.
So if I seem dazed with people I've just met,
it's ‘cause my life’s a dream, don't wanna wake up yet!
I still can’t believe my name is up on that marquee!
It’s just way too crazy for a regular girl like me!
I'm just a regular girl,
but I have real big dreams,
and every day, some more are coming true, it seems!
I mean, I’m not Madonna, and I’m sure not Cher,
but I am Ranko Tendo, and I’m getting there!
Even if I’m flustered, it means everything
that you take time to listen when you hear me sing.
I just can’t express how grateful I am that you’d be
so incredibly supportive of a regular girl like me!
Making music with my friends for you is honestly
the greatest thing that’s ever happened to a regular girl like me!
